The Electro Shot Shooting Gallery was awesome but I quickly learned not to use automatic fire much because it would wear out the batteries fast, even alkaline D cells. Toys like these didn't have AC adapter jacks. It's almost as if they had a secret deal with battery manufacturers....
I picked up a ROCK AND SOC EM ROBOTS took it back to My US Navy ship I wish i could relive that day there was a line for NEXT!!!! Grown men just having fun ...... make a Big Wheel in adult size watch what happens on your block
Received a Christmas gift of a Mr. Machine at 5 years old. Spent many hours watching the gears and the bell ringer. Then the ringer quit. Took Mr. Machine apart. Realized the plastic had worn out. My Dad patched it back as best as possible. I completely enjoyed putting Mr. Machine together many more times. It was the most influential toy understanding engineering principles. But the fourth most educational toy. The plastic was inferior and easly warped. At age 8, i glued strengthening ribs to the main wheel and gears to keep him functional. By that time Mr. Machine was a toy i never played with but always tried to keep fully operational. Age 10, I completely carved a new improved bell ringer from a piece of nylon from a boat door hinge. Mr. Machine got occasional maintenance and upgrades for about 15 more years. But his plastic outgassed so bad, he fell to pieces and dust on his display shelf. There were some mass marketed educational toys 50 to 70 years ago. Today there are still many educational toys, just not mass marketed.
These were truly the good old days. We played outside, no cable TV, no internet, and the only phone I knew was the one my grandmother tied up on the party line. I knew all the neighbor kids. And I didn't give a damn about tv. We only had 3 channels. And the only thing I cared about was Charle brown christmas. And if you missed it you was screwed.
Back when we actually used our own imaginations to play, and people actually did life together. Now everyone is totally disconnected and isolated by electronic devices, and everyone is terrified of each other.
I freaked out xmas am when I got the Marx shooting gallery, I refused to go to church so I could play the Marx shooting gallery. Dad removed the batterys. That ended my plan to skip church. 🤯
I was a 60s / 70s kid. The toys back then were fun. My kids were 90s / 2000s kids and I would search for old toys, like the foam glider or rubber band airplane, rockem suckem robots and such.. It was worth searching for them.
In 75, I was gifted a Starship Enterprise, with actual action figures of Kirk, Spock and either Mccoy or Scotty, cant remember. I really wanted a big one of Lt. Uhura though!!!
Those were the good old days kids nowadays are wimpy. We used to stay outdoors all day and ride our bikes in the neighborhood and have fun. My mom used to make us baloney sandwiches and twinkies. And a hawaiian punch
Toys of that era actually helped teach me analytical thinking. No PC's or video games then, also not a whole lot of out of shape kids as we were ripping and running doing outdoor sports and other outdoor things.
I liked Nylint and Tonka trucks made with real metal and made in USA. Nylint trucks were made in Rockford Illinois and Tonka trucks were made in Mound Minnesota rather than in china.
I had the Marx shooting gallery!!!OH MY GOD!!!! I HAD TOTALLY FORGOTTEN ABOUT IT!!!!! Mind explosion On second thought... My older brother probably got it as a gift.
@@Zizzbiz I used to have the home video release Classic Commercials Toys from the 50s and 60s. I think the compilation on that release and here is EXACTLY the same although the home video release had a small VR bug logo on the right corner of the screen. Don’t know why.
I was a kid in the late 50's and early 60's. One of my favorite toys were toy guns and then BB Guns. I guess it was a little bit due to that being the time for all the Western / Cowboy shows that were on during that time period.
I never saw any Bonanza toys in the 1960s. What I got was Johnny and Jane West, and Josie West. Also Chief Cherokee and the horses Thunderbolt and Thundercolt. That's as far as I got. Still have them today, but can't reach them. I think Jane and Josie West are still in good shape? 😮
That shooting gallery was insane. My friend's father had it, and he let us play with it in the 80s. We both had every Ninja Turtle, Hasbro WWF figure and a dozen Nintendo games each, but we obsessed over that shooting gallery.
i had one when i was a little kid in the 70's, loved it. i didn't realize how much marx toys i had until i got older and wanted to collect my childhood toys.
These commercials were before I was born, so can someone who grew up in this time era explain the Mr.and Mrs Potato head commercial, were those a real potatos?? I'm confused as to how they were advertising the toy, did the potatoes come with it or just the parts to put on a potato, they looked like real potatoes.
At first the Mr Potato Head was just the eyes and ears and mouth and you applied them to real vegetables. Then they switched to a plastic “head “ because lots of parents were complaining that the kids would lose the potato heads and the potatoes would rot. This is the truth.

I wish I was born in the 1950's or 60's. The time period I live in is so boring and bland, stuff had more life back in these commercials and in those eras to :(.
You must remember toy guns came out in s time when tv westerns were popular and gun violence was quite low than today. I had toy guns and i am against gun violence in schools but most toy guns are not offensive to me. Responsable gun owners dont let their children near real guns.

I may be a 2000s/2010s child, but these toys fascinate me. These toys look to be much better quality than the toys of today. 😊😁
There will never be toys like IDeal again.......
My Brother had the “Electro-Shot” Shooting Gallery…One of my the Greatest Toys Ever….
I had the Electro Shot Shooting Gallery, so much fun

Christmas 1969, I received the shooting gallery. Played with it for years.
Shooting gallery was the best toy I ever had, I put twice the balls in it, it lasted 4 years!

I agree. Unless you were involved in the Vietnam war or civil rights riots the 60s and early 70s (pre-Carter) were flat-out awesome.
IT LOOKS LIKE WE HAD THE SAME LIFE LOL ❤

The Electro Shot shooting gallery was my favorite as a kid. I actually have one in working condition and another im restoring. So much fun
I must have had 20 slinkies, it would get bent or messed up and I'd get another one. 😂
I freaked out xmas am when I got the Marx shooting gallery, I refused to go to church so I could play the Marx shooting gallery. Dad removed the batterys. That ended my plan to skip church. 🤯
That kid sure is fast and fancy with them guns.
anyone else just live 50s and 60s sci fi and space stuff?

6:21 Alec Baldwin should have hired this kid to instruct him!
In 75, I was gifted a Starship Enterprise, with actual action figures of Kirk, Spock and either Mccoy or Scotty, cant remember. I really wanted a big one of Lt. Uhura though!!!
I agree, she was stunningly beautiful!
the space race, superheroes, cowboys/soldiers, and apparently bears made up so much of the boys' market it was crazy.
I once had a lot of energy as a child/teenager. Now im tired, worn out almost 60 yrs old.
I remember the shooting gallery! And I loved the seventies Mr. Potato Head! I have Barbie/Ken and GI Joe still!
Those were the good old days kids nowadays are wimpy. We used to stay outdoors all day and ride our bikes in the neighborhood and have fun.
My mom used to make us baloney sandwiches and twinkies.
And a hawaiian punch
Bring these toy's back! I bet most adults who were brought up with toys would purchase them! I can guarantee.
The Poor Slinky company brought back Mr Machine in 2004
i think they all died yet ... lol
Toys of that era actually helped teach me analytical thinking. No PC's or video games then, also not a whole lot of out of shape kids as we were ripping and running doing outdoor sports and other outdoor things.
While most toys were super-cheap compared to now, I saw a doll that cost $29.95, which was a fortune back then.
I had the shooting gallery. It was awsom fun.
I liked Nylint and Tonka trucks made with real metal and made in USA. Nylint trucks were made in Rockford Illinois and Tonka trucks were made in Mound Minnesota rather than in china.
I had the Shooting Gallery and Erector Set.
I had the Marx shooting gallery!!!OH MY GOD!!!!
I HAD TOTALLY FORGOTTEN ABOUT IT!!!!!
Mind explosion
On second thought...
My older brother probably got it as a gift.
I was obsessed with Tonka toys
I didnt have a Slinky to push down stairs when I was a kid. Just a sister.
I had one, it NEVER worked for me... you probably had more fun pushing your sister down the stairs.. LOLOLOL
@@GYPSYG514Agreed! Slinky never walked down the stairs like it did in the TV commercial.
Well, you had to work with what you had at hand. Sorry for your sister, but thats when kids were resourseful and kept busy without big tech.
Used to watch this on dvd with my grandpa
these commercials make me aware of what a game changer LEGO was (space LEGO was the peak)
I want that electro-shot. So cool
Toy gun commercials today would make PC types go ballistic.
😂
That gunslinger was good
You have no idea how long I've been looking for this exact compilation. Thank you!!

I had the shooting gallery. The spring release was fierce and could sting, and the steel balls would hit whatever was in the gallery hard. Good times.
I was a kid in the late 50's and early 60's. One of my favorite toys were toy guns and then BB Guns. I guess it was a little bit due to that being the time for all the Western / Cowboy shows that were on during that time period.

I loved that shooting gallery. My neighbor had it and I looooved playing it
I had one. Loved it but it ate batteries and D cells were expensive and still are.
This brought a smile to my face! I had one as a kid.
6:05 This young man did not have gender confusion nor self identify as a lamp.

I miss girls not feeling super confident all the time, they tried harder to look good

@@ytubeanon 🥴😵😵💫
That Mr.Machine looks creepy.
Im lovin this. Kids actually used their imaginations, playing spys with disappearing paper and guns and lie detecter.
At 23:00 in the 1960s, I never saw any erector sets. I wanted my Tinker Toys! Doesn't anybody remember them?

I had the shooting gallery, spent hours in the basement, this sure brings back some great memories, it was a great time to be a kid😊
Sure you did, lol.
@user-wm1js2no9x
You must be a good shot. 😂😂
...let me run outside brandishing that .38 Snub Nose and see how long I last...?!😀
I had some Man from UNCLE
Toys
I had the man from uncle, rifle
And the James Bond, assault raider kit
Great days over 50 years ago
Nothing like peppering ducks with full auto! That would be illegal today!
My brother and sister and I had the Potato head toy kid, and both my brother and I had the Fanner shooting shell western guns.
How weird! I was just thinking about Greenie Stickem Caps this afternoon!
Just wow! I’ve never seen most of these commercials before. However I had several of the toys. Man my parents spent a lot on this stuff.!
Those of us who grew up playing with toy guns like the Electro Shot didn’t become mass shooters.
15:00 was one of the early MK Ultra programs aimed at us children of that time.
It worked, I still drink my Ovaltine today!
😵💫👍
OMG...?! I didn't realize..."Richard Boone" was/had an "action figure" modeled after him?!!😂 Lolololol...
I had Mr machine too 😊🎉❤
Dick Tracy invented the cell phone!
I thought it was GET SMART😅 HAHA
If i open my door and see that id have a heart attack 😂🤣
‘Bop-A-Bear’ Calling Irwin Mainway.
I'm glad I didn't have a Mr machine sure the hell looks like he's ready to walk after you and bite you
I wanted that shooting gallery soooo...bad!!!
I wish they overplayed the year of each commercial. I can't tell if it was around when I was a kid. They all look so familiar.
I really wanted that 007 pen as a kid. I never got one.
I played that Lie Detector game MANY times. It does not require batteries.
But was it admissable in court?
Imagine the holster and pistols today? The little cowboy shoots a cigarshop Indian statue!
Ovaltine gives you Rocket Power (ie: massive sugar rush)
..... you'll put your eye out!"
Those toys were wonderful 👏.
I wanna Bop a Bear!
I'm sure some of you know the answer......
How could you tell you had a genuine G.I. Joe and not an imitation?

Ovaltine is junk.
The Ohio Art Company And James Industries.
With mr. Machine, Too bad a car could've run on the same power. 😊
I thought I had a great childhood…but now I realize I never had a snub nosed .38. Wasted youth!
I would Javed love that 007 ring and bracelet it

I'm confused as to how they were advertising the toy, did the potatoes come with it or just the parts to put on a potato, they looked like real potatoes.
I believe just the parts came in a box and the kids had to ask mommy for the potatoes🥔🥔🥔
yes, those were real potatoes. or you could use any fruit or vegetable. it was def pre 1970... or maybe 1960
At first the Mr Potato Head was just the eyes and ears and mouth and you applied them to real vegetables. Then they switched to a plastic “head “ because lots of parents were complaining that the kids would lose the potato heads and the potatoes would rot. This is the truth.
Barbie had more than one boyfriend because early blonde Ken looks nothing like brown haired Ken most of us know.
So, how many dollies did you have altogether?
@@r.p.mcmurphy6623 I was the only boy in my entire family until high school. I was surrounded by Barbie dolls and I'm still disturbed by them.
